Fitting the Track and Hangers

 Carefully remove the track from its packaging.

 Position the track to the headlining, ensuring it is concentric with the tray
beneath, and there is no debris or grease between the track and the
vessel. The join should be orientated in a position where the door will not
be required to slide past.

 Mark the position of the mounting holes through the gap in the track.
Marking with a scriber or pen is recommended to avoid damage to the
track.

 Drill ø2.5mm holes at the marked positions. Do not drill directly through
the track as shown in Figure 2.


Fig 2: Do not drill mounting holes directly through track.

 The track should be secured to the headlining using modified No6 self-
tapping screws. These are modified by turning down the heads to a
diameter of ø5.5 - 6.0mm to allow them to fit between the gap in the rails.

 Secure the track to the headlining using a suitable manual screwdriver. An

electrician’s type screwdriver is recommended as the rubber sleeve will
protect the track from damage.

 Looking at the track from beneath, do not fit the mounting screw
immediately to the left of the join. This will be fitted after the hangers are
inserted.

 Ensure any swarf or debris is removed from the track.

 Remove the hangers from the door and retain all fixings. Note the
orientation of the counterbore with respect to the door – the dome-headed
interscrews will be fitted in the counterbore (see Figure 3).

 Gently lower the free end of the track to a position where the hangers can
be inserted (see Figure 4). Ensure the counterbores on all hangers face
the correct direction for the door type.

 Secure the free end of the track with the last self-tapping screws. See
Figure 5.

Hanging the Door

 Carefully remove the door from its outer packaging. Leave the protective
film over the surface of the door, peeling away only from the area
surrounding the mounting holes.

 With the hangers located in two pairs, carefully lift the door into position
beneath the hangers. See Figure 6.

Fig 6: Position the door beneath the hangers.

 Securely fit the stainless steel fasteners, as per Figures 3, 7 and 8.

 During this stage, do not allow the door to hang from one end. Keep
the door supported at all times.

Fitting the Bottom Guide

 With the door suspended over the shower tray, measure the remaining gap
between the bottom of the door and the bottom of the groove in the tray.

 The height of the bottom guide should be about 1mm less than the
distance measured. If the guide is too tall, trim the top edge of the guide
until the height is 1mm less than the distance measured.

 Place the guide in the bottom of the groove, and position beneath the door.
Raise the guide and insert into the slot at the bottom of the door. Make
sure good contact is made between the guide and the door, and then
secure using three No4 self-tapping screws. See Figures 9 and 10.

necessary

 Test the door to ensure smooth running and guidance in the track and
groove.

Fitting a Second Door

 Some Trend Marine shower doors come in a nested two-door option. When
fitting a second door, repeat the steps in Figures 6 through 10.

 Ensure the doors overlap correctly, so that the edge claws have adequate
clearance but still enable one-handed operation of the door.
